Honestly this is a great _simple_ way to access weather without leaving my terminal. Love the basic ASCII graphics.
I noticed it's a LOT faster when I provide the city, probably because it doesn't have to look it up from IP:
``` curl wttr.in/atlanta ```
Nice work.
I live in a big city, it could be raining frogs in one part and a happy sunny day in the other and the best thing any weather report could say to me is 'expect rain'. And if I need to go it doesn't even matter what the report says or if I have/have not an umbrella with me.
Honestly for the last decade even if I look at the weather report I look not for the current conditions (I have eyes and windows) but what would be in a couple of hours, because temperature difference between 9PM and 3AM could be pretty significant.. and it doesn't even matter in winter and summer. *shrug_emoji*
Just in case you haven't seen it: some services provide conditions and forecasts for particular locations with better resolution than ‘the city’, and can show the projected movement of rainclouds.
(You'll have to research the services for your country yourself, as I doubt it that my local one is useful for outsiders. But I'd guess that these days many big web services have these features.)
Still, after I wrote the previous comment the rain has come. And in 15 minutes there was no rain and the sun shone brightly and in another 30 minutes even puddles all dried up. So the practical usability of such service is quite limited.
The one I use is https://yandex.ru/pogoda/maps/nowcast — but I'm not sure if it works in English, and these days perhaps one will prefer not to use Yandex anyway.
